God's safe-keeping Spirit
Exegetical note: Although Paul made the crossing of the Red Sea a type for Christian baptism (1 Corinthians 10:1-2), the incident would seem to have much broader implications: God's miraculous rescue of the Israelites from their "deep waters" (both literal and figurative) prefigures God's removal of all believers from whatever "deep waters" they find themselves confronting. Noteworthy here, of course, is the suggestion (v. 21) that God actually worked through a natural phenomenon, notably wind (cf. "breath," "spirit").
